I have an existing GSD file and I need to create the corresponding C# file to represent the functions.
I know I can use the Excel template to create BOTH the GSD and C# file needed, but I’m not sure how to work with an existing GSD file.
The GSD is 86 lines of text. Seeing as it is rather small, I’ll paste it in code here in case it helps answer my question.
; This GSD allows user to select the exact configuration of its 410-510 instrument
; to do so, the gateway firmware version has to be >= 2.0 and the user software version has to be >= 2.15
; if not, select Module "Profibus Gateway Version < 2.0"
; GSD revision 2 has been specially done for a system whom string Module strings length description were too long
; Modifications done:
; Text "Gateway Version >= 2.0 - 1 channel" become "1 channel"
; Text "Gateway Version >= 2.0 - 2 channels" become "2 channels"
; Text "Gateway Version >= 2.0 - 3 channels" become "3 channels"

I have also included the table of address-to-measurement information.
